Will brakes off a VE R8 fit a series 1 vt ss?

[mangzilla]

Just wondering if it'd possible to fit the brakes (rotors and calipers) off a VE R8 on a series 1 vt ss? A guy from work offered them to me as he is upgrading to brembo's, so i thought id suss them out, simply because their newer.

In short "no", different offset, different postion of caliper.
A few brake shops on ebay make up brake kits using VE calipers and special adapting brackets and rotors to suit VT-VZ commodores.

but having said that depending how cheap you can get them for you can always re sell them as a profit

Would it be possible to get the brackets?

no

there's a place that sells a full kit but they won't sell their brackets at all

no

^^^Thats not true here you go mate: COMMODORE 330MM BRAKE UPGRADE BRACKETS ONLY VT/VX/VY/VZ | eBay

damnnn, im not even sure now. more expensive then i imagined.

no

no need for the sarcasm. in this day and age its not surprising at all for some wank to only sell things as a whole so people either go without or fork out the cash to buy a whole kit.

I can't believe the price of those brackets.

[mangzilla]

i reckon hey, you buy a whole kit for the front end for like $800-900 new. im sure the brackets are the cheapest part of the kit, yet they want nearly half the price on their own.

[TonyJZX]

lol

the full kit is like $700

so a set of brackets is about the same as a pair of calipers, rotors and pads...

Those brackets are just for the VT-VZ, not to fit VE calipers.
